Hi all.
I have a 'fix', well its a suggestion that works by disabling the history navigation. Use about:config in your address bar and filter 'mouse'. Then change the following values to '0'.
mousewheel.horizscroll.withaltkey.action
mousewheel.horizscroll.withaltkey.numlines
mousewheel.horizscroll.withcontrolkey.action
mousewheel.horizscroll.withcontrolkey.numlines
mousewheel.horizscroll.withnokey.action
mousewheel.horizscroll.withnokey.numlines
This should help alleviate the pain of having your browser jump pages when using the track pad.
Cheers!
